About Tara

Experience: 10 yrs

Hi! I'm Tara and I live in Sharon, MA. I have my B. S. in Early Childhood Education and I have 14 years of nanny experience caring for children ages 3 months through 7 years. I also have my lead infant/toddler & preschool teacher certification, director certification, and 5+ years of teaching/director experience. I am currently a SAHM with my 2. 5-year-old little guy. We love playing outside, going on fun trips (park, library, zoo, Target, weekly classes), art, reading, puzzles, etc. I'm looking to find a part time nanny position (in my home) 1-3 days a week. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

I cannot recommend Tara highly enough. I have a background in clinical psychology (PhD) with an early childhood development focus, so I am extremely picky. I was also very nervous about going back to work and leaving my son with a nanny but I couldn't be happier with Tara. Tara is very personable and she impressed me immediately with her warmth, genuine interest and love of children, and positive nature. She talks to my infant son, laughs with him, sings silly songs, and takes him on outings. It takes a while for my infant son to warm up to people, but whenever he sees Tara he greets her with a big smile. She has also been very flexible with us as my husband and I have been learning how best to encourage my son to nap! Please do not hesitate to reach me with questions about Tara.
